Do the Wines of Spain Grow Mainly on the Plain?

Are you a major fan of Tempranillo but don’t know where Ribera Del Duero is? No problem.  Or do you think that a Touriga Nacional is a Spanish revolutionary?  It’s a grape used in making port. Reserve a seat at Roberto Hernandez’s upcoming wine tasting class about the wines of Spain & Portugal. You’ll learn lots and go home after sampling crisp Albarino, sparkling Vinho Verde, vintage smoking Riojas, and silky port along with a vegetable paella,  machengo cheeses and enough food to complement the wines.  Roberto is a Bay Area wine educator and enthusiast who offers wine classes and debunks many of the misconceptions people have about the world of wines. Get debunked. And they are fun and informative in an intimate setting of a background garden. The cost is $40 and the class is limited to 12 people. Intimate and awesome. The class is on Sunday September 13th from 2 to 5 pm at 1347 Minna Street in the Mission District of San Francisco. Come with a thirst to learn.  Viva Rioja!
